1
00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from

2
00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:06.000
<v Speaker 1>KFI AM six forty.

3
00:00:06.040 --> 00:00:08.599
<v Speaker 2>I bought along my son Jonathan, who in the year

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:09.759
<v Speaker 2>two thousand.

5
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:11.359
<v Speaker 3>And one will be the same age as I am.

6
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Now maybe he will be better adjusted to this kind

7
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:16.839
<v Speaker 2>of world that you will will try to controy. The

8
00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:19.160
<v Speaker 2>big difference when he grows up. In fact, if we

9
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:20.960
<v Speaker 2>wanted to wait for the year two thousand and one,

10
00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:24.000
<v Speaker 2>is that he will have in his own house, not

11
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:26.960
<v Speaker 2>a good as big as this, but at least a

12
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:30.480
<v Speaker 2>console to which you can talk to his friendly local

13
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.439
<v Speaker 2>computer and get all the information meets for his everyday life,

14
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:38.719
<v Speaker 2>but his bank statements, the theater reservations, all the information

15
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:41.439
<v Speaker 2>you need in the course of fitting in a complex

16
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:42.200
<v Speaker 2>modern society.

17
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:43.119
<v Speaker 3>This will be in.

18
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:45.320
<v Speaker 2>A compact form.

19
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:46.039
<v Speaker 3>In his own house.

20
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:50.000
<v Speaker 2>He'll have a television screen like Bhaer and the keyboard,

21
00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:51.960
<v Speaker 2>and he'll talk to the computer, get information from it,

22
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:53.600
<v Speaker 2>and he will take it as must ground as we

23
00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:54.359
<v Speaker 2>take the telephone.

24
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:57.280
<v Speaker 4>K IF I am six forty is Later with Moe Kelly.

25
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:00.479
<v Speaker 4>That was the voice of Arthur C. Clark, my favorite

26
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:04.480
<v Speaker 4>science fiction writer ever. It was in nineteen seventy four

27
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:07.000
<v Speaker 4>and he was in the middle of an interview with

28
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.200
<v Speaker 4>ABC News that sound that you heard in the background

29
00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:13.680
<v Speaker 4>with the big cabinets of tapes running of what used

30
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.640
<v Speaker 4>to be computers, and he was talking to a young

31
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:19.840
<v Speaker 4>child young by nineteen seventy four standards older than me,

32
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:23.239
<v Speaker 4>who would live in a world one day in which

33
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:26.200
<v Speaker 4>computers could fit on the size of a desk and

34
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:28.359
<v Speaker 4>we'd be able to talk to the computers and be

35
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 4>able to do our banking and be able to communicate

36
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:34.560
<v Speaker 4>with each other. Hey, that'll never happen never, or at

37
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:38.280
<v Speaker 4>least Arthur C. Clark could foresee it in nineteen seventy four.

38
00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:41.920
<v Speaker 4>Here we are in twenty twenty five, and he couldn't

39
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:45.400
<v Speaker 4>have been more right. Marshall Collier, it's great to see you.

40
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:47.159
<v Speaker 4>And I wanted to use that as a lead in

41
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:50.480
<v Speaker 4>because as we talk about tech, it's nice to remember

42
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:51.439
<v Speaker 4>how far we've come.

43
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:55.159
<v Speaker 5>Oh, it's amazing. It is just amazing how far we've come.

44
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:58.560
<v Speaker 5>I mean you, I'm I'm sure you're old enough to

45
00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:00.920
<v Speaker 5>remember Windows three one.

46
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:02.760
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I remember three point one.

47
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:06.439
<v Speaker 5>I remember returning Windows one point oh to the store

48
00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:07.879
<v Speaker 5>and said, why would I need this?

49
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:12.840
<v Speaker 4>I just remember when I first saw Windows and I

50
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:15.439
<v Speaker 4>realized that, wait a minute, it looks a lot like

51
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:16.680
<v Speaker 4>my Apple two C.

52
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:20.039
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, didn't it, Yes, it did. Yeah, they had some

53
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.919
<v Speaker 5>discussions about that. But that's a whole other show. I

54
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:27.159
<v Speaker 5>got something for you today which blows me away. I've

55
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:31.759
<v Speaker 5>used a product from this company several years ago when

56
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:36.080
<v Speaker 5>I went to Alaska to Nowhere land north of the

57
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:40.400
<v Speaker 5>Arctic Circle. We were staying at a truck stop. The

58
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:46.120
<v Speaker 5>snow was twenty feet high, there were no connections, there

59
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:47.120
<v Speaker 5>was no running water.

60
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:49.080
<v Speaker 3>This was a vacation.

61
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:51.919
<v Speaker 6>I loved it, seriously.

62
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:56.360
<v Speaker 5>It was the best adventure, the best adventure Alaska in

63
00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:58.360
<v Speaker 5>the winter. As long as you have the right clothes,

64
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:03.039
<v Speaker 5>not a problem. But I was very concerned about my internet,

65
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:07.719
<v Speaker 5>and I had an early version of this product. These

66
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:11.159
<v Speaker 5>people came out with a new product and because of

67
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:14.719
<v Speaker 5>the fire, you know, I was the North Reech earthquake

68
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:16.800
<v Speaker 5>was the worst thing that ever happened to me. Now

69
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:19.800
<v Speaker 5>we had these horrible fires, which I think were even

70
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:25.719
<v Speaker 5>worse with the destruction, and you think about you didn't

71
00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:26.360
<v Speaker 5>have Wi Fi.

72
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:28.560
<v Speaker 6>How could you connect?

73
00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.599
<v Speaker 5>And we've talked about this why people have landlines, Because

74
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.360
<v Speaker 5>landlines are often the first to be reconnected. Yes, you

75
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:40.800
<v Speaker 5>know so, but now they're reconnecting the Wi Fi and

76
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:45.000
<v Speaker 5>the cellular signals. But the cellular signals, uh, you know,

77
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:49.439
<v Speaker 5>it takes a while. So found this product. I saw

78
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:50.199
<v Speaker 5>them at Cees.

79
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:52.120
<v Speaker 3>It's about the size of the phone.

80
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:56.759
<v Speaker 5>It's exactly the size of smaller than my phone. It's

81
00:03:56.800 --> 00:04:01.039
<v Speaker 5>called the solst Go. I'm showing it to here. It's

82
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:06.520
<v Speaker 5>a small device. It's got three cables attached to it.

83
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:09.680
<v Speaker 4>It looks like an external battery that you put on

84
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:10.159
<v Speaker 4>your phone.

85
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:14.400
<v Speaker 5>Maybe, well, funny you should say that, because it is

86
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:16.920
<v Speaker 5>a battery. It is a power bank. And we've talked

87
00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:20.600
<v Speaker 5>about that. Eight thousand milliamp hours.

88
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:21.439
<v Speaker 3>That's a lot.

89
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:24.319
<v Speaker 6>That's a lot that can do two phones.

90
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.560
<v Speaker 3>Do you have? Most phones are like three point six

91
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:26.920
<v Speaker 3>or so.

92
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:30.000
<v Speaker 5>Right, so you don't have a problem if you're in

93
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:34.319
<v Speaker 5>a disaster, if you're in an earthquake, your phone has died,

94
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 5>you can plug it in. It has three cables USBC, USBA.

95
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:43.959
<v Speaker 3>And lightning, yes, light cable for app.

96
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 6>I always call it thunderbault.

97
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:47.439
<v Speaker 3>We know what you mean.

98
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:52.040
<v Speaker 6>It's an iPhone. But you have the three connectors.

99
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:58.480
<v Speaker 5>You can charge it easily on the side, simple and

100
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:02.800
<v Speaker 5>What it is is a hotspot, just like you could

101
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:06.000
<v Speaker 5>make your phone into a hotspot. Right, this is a

102
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:10.279
<v Speaker 5>power bank and a hotspot. You can put up to

103
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:13.879
<v Speaker 5>ten people on this device.

104
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.600
<v Speaker 4>In an emergency, I could be with a dead phone

105
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:21.720
<v Speaker 4>in a dead zone and be able to both charge

106
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:25.319
<v Speaker 4>my phone for at least three or four full charges,

107
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:28.519
<v Speaker 4>ten devices on it if need be, and also have

108
00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:31.079
<v Speaker 4>some sort of signal. I can't say Wi Fi, but

109
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:32.920
<v Speaker 4>satellite signal, uh.

110
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:36.879
<v Speaker 5>No, it picks. They have deals right now. It's connected

111
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:40.680
<v Speaker 5>to AT and t okay. They have deals with the

112
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:45.000
<v Speaker 5>different companies and just like an mv and O, you know,

113
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 5>like consumer cellular mobile. They make deals with the Google

114
00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:52.839
<v Speaker 5>Fi right and Google Fi, and I don't know who

115
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:55.879
<v Speaker 5>they use. They usually don't talk about all that. But

116
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 5>it can run ten devices all at once, simultaneously going

117
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:08.560
<v Speaker 5>to the internet. It has virtual SIM technology if you

118
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:14.879
<v Speaker 5>need to use that on your phone.

119
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.519
<v Speaker 4>That would be great in the event that let's say

120
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:18.680
<v Speaker 4>you are home. You have the generator for the house,

121
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:21.720
<v Speaker 4>but that could be used for all your devices and

122
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:23.480
<v Speaker 4>communication needs in a given.

123
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:25.560
<v Speaker 5>Modele as long as there's a signal somewhere. And I

124
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 5>am telling you hand to God, folks. Really, I was

125
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:34.720
<v Speaker 5>in the middle of nowhere, there were moose near me.

126
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:39.040
<v Speaker 5>That was it, and I could get a signal on

127
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:44.480
<v Speaker 5>this company's earlier device. This is called the Solace sols Go.

128
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:47.920
<v Speaker 3>How much are we talking about ballpark?

129
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:49.600
<v Speaker 6>About one hundred dollars.

130
00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's more than reasonable.

131
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:55.360
<v Speaker 5>And guess what it comes with one gig of data

132
00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:58.759
<v Speaker 5>a month free for the rest of your life.

133
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:03.160
<v Speaker 4>And you're not going to be using one gig of

134
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:06.720
<v Speaker 4>data except for those extreme emergencies.

135
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:10.240
<v Speaker 5>If this is an emergency device or a great travel

136
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:13.480
<v Speaker 5>advice a device, I mean you go to another country.

137
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.639
<v Speaker 5>There are some people who honestly, the international plans when

138
00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:20.120
<v Speaker 5>you travel can be ridiculous.

139
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:20.360
<v Speaker 6>You know.

140
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:22.240
<v Speaker 5>The first thing you do see when you get off

141
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:25.199
<v Speaker 5>the plane in a foreign country is those kiosks to

142
00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:29.040
<v Speaker 5>buy cards and SIM cards. Now there are eSIMs now,

143
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:33.279
<v Speaker 5>but I would not use a foreign e SIM in

144
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:33.800
<v Speaker 5>my phone.

145
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:36.560
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no.

146
00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:39.199
<v Speaker 4>As a matter of fact, that's part of the reason

147
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:41.120
<v Speaker 4>why I use Google five because I can use it

148
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:43.000
<v Speaker 4>internationally exactly.

149
00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:47.279
<v Speaker 5>And I have a T mobile that comes with free international.

150
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:50.319
<v Speaker 5>And next week we'll be talking about the mvn os

151
00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:56.240
<v Speaker 5>and e sims versus regular sims. But anyway, it's difficult

152
00:07:56.279 --> 00:07:59.879
<v Speaker 5>in some countries to get connections, and once you have that,

153
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:05.560
<v Speaker 5>you can be connected. I just think aside from you know,

154
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:12.560
<v Speaker 5>think about it Wi Fi connectivity, it's called VSIM technology whatever.

155
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.639
<v Speaker 5>Charge your phones around one hundred dollars, I think, and

156
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:23.079
<v Speaker 5>the free data for life, free gigabyte per month.

157
00:08:23.399 --> 00:08:27.279
<v Speaker 4>I always think about devices in terms of reliability. Can

158
00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:30.240
<v Speaker 4>I use this in a pinch? Can I depend on it?

159
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.000
<v Speaker 4>Will I know that it's going to be there if

160
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:38.120
<v Speaker 4>there are extenuating circumstances like a disaster or a personal emergency.

161
00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:39.639
<v Speaker 6>Like I told you, I can.

162
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.679
<v Speaker 5>My husband and I can both testify we have one

163
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.679
<v Speaker 5>of these. We have used it, We depended on it.

164
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:48.799
<v Speaker 5>There was no way else we were going to get

165
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:49.919
<v Speaker 5>a signal because.

166
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:51.320
<v Speaker 3>You only got one chance in emergency.

167
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.120
<v Speaker 6>In an emergency, especially.

168
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:56.799
<v Speaker 3>That, I gotta know, it's gotta work well.

169
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.120
<v Speaker 5>In the north Ridge quake, we had nothing. So but

170
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:04.080
<v Speaker 5>this will give you. Put it in your go bag,

171
00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:06.799
<v Speaker 5>keep it there, and always have.

172
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:09.279
<v Speaker 3>It when we come back. Let's talk about a little

173
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.320
<v Speaker 3>bit of T Mobile and Starling. Can you do that

174
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:11.600
<v Speaker 3>for me?

175
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:11.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

176
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:13.279
<v Speaker 3>You bet all right?

177
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:14.600
<v Speaker 6>That won't be free.

178
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:17.480
<v Speaker 4>You got that right, it's Later with Mo Kelly. Marsha

<v Speaker 4>Coluer joins me in studio. Ka if I am six forty.

00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:31.720
<v Speaker 3>What's the easy way to get online? It's gotta be America.

00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:32.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm line.

184
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:34.639
<v Speaker 6>I love hearing her.

185
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:38.039
<v Speaker 3>You've got three twenty four hour customer service. Everyone I

186
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:38.919
<v Speaker 3>know is on ALI.

187
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:43.000
<v Speaker 6>My favorite feature on AOL is dis messages.

188
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:46.279
<v Speaker 3>I feel real secure with AOLZ, with protal controls. I

189
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:48.799
<v Speaker 3>feel better about my kids being online. All easy, So

00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:51.759
<v Speaker 3>weased to use No wonder it's number one, had four

<v Speaker 4>Yeah, can if I am six forty, it's Later with

193
00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:59.279
<v Speaker 4>mo Kelly. We all remember AOL.

194
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:02.639
<v Speaker 5>It's totally scary. Is I know people who still haven't

195
00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:04.080
<v Speaker 5>at AOL dot com?

196
00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:05.080
<v Speaker 3>You mean my mother?

197
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:06.320
<v Speaker 6>Oh? Really?

198
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:07.240
<v Speaker 2>My dad?

199
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:09.840
<v Speaker 6>Hot? Was that your mom? Hot chicken?

200
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:10.039
<v Speaker 2>Ale?

201
00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:10.519
<v Speaker 3>No?

202
00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:13.399
<v Speaker 4>No, no, no, no, no, no, that wasn't her. But she

203
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:15.960
<v Speaker 4>still uses AOL and I can't break her up.

204
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:16.799
<v Speaker 3>What were you going to say?

205
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:22.279
<v Speaker 4>Stepan, and some people have AOL account. I was like, yeah,

206
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:27.440
<v Speaker 4>like my dad. It is a generational thing for sure. Oh, gosh,

207
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:32.120
<v Speaker 4>maybe they were first introduced to the Internet and email.

208
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:33.080
<v Speaker 6>Well so was I.

209
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.679
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, but sure, this is your bread and butter.

210
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:39.399
<v Speaker 3>This is your life, sotile, this is your career.

211
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.679
<v Speaker 5>In many everybody I see who still has an Aol

212
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:48.440
<v Speaker 5>email address, please do yourself a favor. Gmail is free.

213
00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:52.279
<v Speaker 5>Get a Gmail account, and don't put a silly name

214
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.919
<v Speaker 5>at the beginning. Try and use a format of your name.

215
00:10:57.000 --> 00:11:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Look, it makes sense to you and me. It may

216
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:01.679
<v Speaker 3>even be common sense.

217
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.879
<v Speaker 4>I just know a lot of people that I still

218
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.519
<v Speaker 4>deal with have an Aol email address, and.

219
00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:11.000
<v Speaker 6>There's a perception problem. There's a perception.

220
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:12.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh absolutely, I'm very judgmental.

221
00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:15.759
<v Speaker 4>If I see an AOL address, it's like you deserve

222
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:20.320
<v Speaker 4>some sort of Nigerian scammer to come get you using

223
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.080
<v Speaker 4>an Aol email address.

224
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:23.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, dare you?

225
00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:25.480
<v Speaker 6>How about if you had a Starlink email.

226
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:29.840
<v Speaker 4>Address Starlink, I don't think I've met anyone with a

227
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:31.559
<v Speaker 4>star Link email address.

228
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:34.799
<v Speaker 6>Think you have, Well I don't know. I don't know

229
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.440
<v Speaker 6>because I don't have Starlink. But if that's your internet provider, maybe.

230
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:41.080
<v Speaker 3>It would make sense. They'd probably have something that would

231
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:43.759
<v Speaker 3>be kind of cool. But since you mentioned Starlink. We

232
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:44.759
<v Speaker 3>have a story to talk about.

233
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:46.440
<v Speaker 6>Funny how that happens.

234
00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:52.960
<v Speaker 5>In July, T Mobile is going to launch commercial service

235
00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:57.279
<v Speaker 5>for Starlink satellite phone service. It's going to be free

236
00:11:57.720 --> 00:12:01.960
<v Speaker 5>for T Mobile customers on the Go five G Next

237
00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:06.360
<v Speaker 5>plan and available for other customers for a monthly faith

238
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:11.120
<v Speaker 5>And we'll talk about that because other no matter who

239
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:17.639
<v Speaker 5>your provider is, you can buy satellite connection for your phone.

240
00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:20.960
<v Speaker 4>Let me ask you this, because we've seen satellite phones

241
00:12:21.000 --> 00:12:24.720
<v Speaker 4>depicted in movies and it was usually reserved for military

242
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:27.799
<v Speaker 4>or very very wealthy people. Why do you think other

243
00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:33.399
<v Speaker 4>than just greed, traditional providers have not more quickly moved

244
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:35.480
<v Speaker 4>to offering satellite service.

245
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:36.919
<v Speaker 6>I think it's very expensive.

246
00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:41.200
<v Speaker 5>I mean, let's face it, eline in my humble opinion,

247
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:46.720
<v Speaker 5>Yet they use launching those satellites as lessons learned. They

248
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:50.600
<v Speaker 5>learned so much from putting those satellites in orbit and

249
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:55.840
<v Speaker 5>the communications between satellite to satellite bouncing to Earth bouncing back.

250
00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:00.519
<v Speaker 5>I mean, and to make it mobile for people's mobile

251
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:05.200
<v Speaker 5>homes and things like that. Yeah, I think you can't

252
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:10.240
<v Speaker 5>say that. You said this week that there are failed

253
00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:14.000
<v Speaker 5>technologies which we never saw again, but that's not true.

254
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:17.919
<v Speaker 5>A lot of times those technologies are adopted into new

255
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:21.840
<v Speaker 5>technologies and are made even better. And that's why everything

256
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:25.480
<v Speaker 5>when it comes to technology and science, even the smallest

257
00:13:25.480 --> 00:13:29.360
<v Speaker 5>discovery can be a big win when it becomes part

258
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:31.360
<v Speaker 5>of something bigger. But let me just tell you about this.

259
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:37.080
<v Speaker 5>If you'd like to try the starlink service, the beta

260
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:42.360
<v Speaker 5>phase is free to T Mobile customers, at and T

261
00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:48.399
<v Speaker 5>and Verizon customers. Anybody can use it, probably Google five.

262
00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:52.399
<v Speaker 5>It's a beta now. You get it free through July

263
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:58.360
<v Speaker 5>first or the July the month and until they start

264
00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:01.200
<v Speaker 5>charging money for it. And if you want to go

265
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:05.919
<v Speaker 5>to sign up for it, you'll have to replay the podcast.

266
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:09.840
<v Speaker 5>If you don't get it first, go to www dot

270
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.320
<v Speaker 4>That will be in the podcast because I know you

271
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:31.559
<v Speaker 4>didn't get that the first time.

272
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:33.159
<v Speaker 6>To repeat that a couple times.

273
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:37.000
<v Speaker 5>Anyone on any carri carrier, no matter who your carrier is,

274
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:39.480
<v Speaker 5>you can sign up to join the beta test and

275
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.440
<v Speaker 5>get satellite powered messaging at no cost until July.

276
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:48.279
<v Speaker 6>And you're right, it's kind of like a big it's

277
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:49.159
<v Speaker 6>kind of cool.

278
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:52.200
<v Speaker 4>I guess how would you say, Let's say, I mean,

279
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:54.600
<v Speaker 4>with the exception of people who obviously live in more

280
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:59.399
<v Speaker 4>rural areas, more of out of the way areas, what

281
00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:02.559
<v Speaker 4>would be some of the benefits of satellite coverage other

282
00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:04.759
<v Speaker 4>than just knowing that wherever you are in the world,

283
00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:05.279
<v Speaker 4>you're covered.

284
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:05.879
<v Speaker 6>That's it.

285
00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:06.399
<v Speaker 3>Okay?

286
00:15:06.559 --> 00:15:09.759
<v Speaker 5>Well, because for example, one of our listeners had emailed

287
00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:12.720
<v Speaker 5>me and she had a daughter who goes hiking and

288
00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:15.120
<v Speaker 5>they wanted to stay in touch and there was no

289
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:19.519
<v Speaker 5>signal out there. She just I turned her onto Google

290
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:24.120
<v Speaker 5>five and it worked. I mean, there is a signal

291
00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:28.480
<v Speaker 5>for almost everyone in cities. It's the parts of the world,

292
00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:31.679
<v Speaker 5>and it really is said. And by the way, talking

293
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:36.799
<v Speaker 5>earlier about the solst go that's four G LTE, why

294
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:40.000
<v Speaker 5>is it not five G because half of the world,

295
00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:43.240
<v Speaker 5>I mean, that thing works in like one hundred and

296
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:50.039
<v Speaker 5>twenty countries. When it comes to internet connections, there are

297
00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:53.759
<v Speaker 5>some companies just getting off of three G. You've got

298
00:15:53.799 --> 00:16:01.000
<v Speaker 5>to realize not everybody is technologically advanced as are England

299
00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:03.919
<v Speaker 5>and Europe. You know, there's a whole world out there.

300
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:06.320
<v Speaker 5>In the way we have first World and second and

301
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:09.399
<v Speaker 5>third world. We have the same as far as technology

302
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:15.279
<v Speaker 5>Elogy exactly. So for international travel, a four G which

303
00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:20.320
<v Speaker 5>is backwardly compatible from five G, will be the best

304
00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:23.039
<v Speaker 5>choice for you. If you have a five G and

305
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:24.840
<v Speaker 5>there's no five G signal.

306
00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:26.960
<v Speaker 6>That can happen.

307
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:30.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, most of the phones now I think will drop

308
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:30.840
<v Speaker 3>to four G.

309
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:33.480
<v Speaker 5>Though they will, they will. I noticed it at all,

310
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:35.720
<v Speaker 5>but most have been sitting right out there. I said, Oh,

311
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:36.559
<v Speaker 5>I have LTE.

312
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:37.200
<v Speaker 3>What happened?

313
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:37.360
<v Speaker 1>Right?

314
00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:40.039
<v Speaker 3>What happens? I said, And LTE used to be you

315
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:40.879
<v Speaker 3>know the thing.

316
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:46.240
<v Speaker 5>But anyway, it uses existing nineteen one hundred MEGAHERTZE cellular

317
00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:50.080
<v Speaker 5>frequency bands, which is LTE band twenty five and four

318
00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:55.799
<v Speaker 5>G transmission standards. Initially, it'll be just text messages and

319
00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:59.039
<v Speaker 5>location information so you know, if you fall down a

320
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:04.200
<v Speaker 5>mountain you can use it. Eventually it will include voice calls,

321
00:17:04.279 --> 00:17:09.079
<v Speaker 5>texts and images and data support for some applications. For

322
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.720
<v Speaker 5>T Mobile customers not on the plan fifteen dollars a

323
00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:16.359
<v Speaker 5>month after the beta ends at and T and Verizon

324
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:21.160
<v Speaker 5>customers twenty dollars a month after the free beta ends,

325
00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:25.279
<v Speaker 5>and early adopters ten dollars a month during the beta.

326
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:28.680
<v Speaker 4>But this could be game changing, especially if you live

327
00:17:28.920 --> 00:17:30.559
<v Speaker 4>in a more remote area.

328
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:35.960
<v Speaker 5>Exactly exactly, we live in a city. I was in Texas.

329
00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:39.680
<v Speaker 5>I was in Midland, Texas. Talk about Billy Bob Thharton and.

331
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:47.680
<v Speaker 5>I'm telling you it was so accurate because I have

332

<v Speaker 5>been to Midland. My husband is from Midland. I know

333

<v Speaker 5>Midland that they to a tee and they got it right.

334
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:01.680
<v Speaker 5>I hope the world understands the people of Midland that

335
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:05.000
<v Speaker 5>you know. I heard people talk about, you know, how

336
00:18:05.119 --> 00:18:08.400
<v Speaker 5>little money they must make. Are you kidding me? Someone
